Something Store – Having problems figuring out what to buy someone? Just send them something.

Surprise your friends. Surprise yourself. Order something and be amazed to find out what it is when it arrives.

Maybe you don’t know what to get someone for Christmas or their birthday, or maybe you’d like to surprise yourself with a gift. How do you surprise yourself when you’re the one doing the buying? You get the item from the Something Store.

Whoever came up with this idea is a genius. Don’t bother with trying to get someone’s order right; simply stick any old thing in a box and send it on its way. Of course, this site doesn’t actually send you ‘any old thing.’ All items are guaranteed to be new and worth at least $10, but aside from that – and the fact they won’t ship anything illegal – the sky is the limit. Maybe you’ll get a Kindle… or a harmonica.

It only costs $10 (plus shipping and handling) to send a friend, coworker, loved one, or yourself something, so why not give it a try?
